It's not cheating. Lexxan is merely applying a different tact.

Or asking for a helping hand Frankly I wouldn't mind doing it either, there is only so much time I'm willing to devote for some things. It's by the end of the season that you must know them well, it's still a learning period.

My take on the comma thingy:
I own all things, which are in my room. = I own everything in the universe, and all those things are in my room (paradoxically).
I own all things that are in my room. = Every object in my room is owned by me.
It's something to do with exclusivity, or relative clauses, or something like that...

Wonder if you'll like it when someone else does them on something you don't want. (i.e opposite situation)
Of course exams & tests & pretty much school and the like suck so I agree with you there. 
i was just speaking in general about "chaotic" behavior.

Due to the fact our company turns more and more into a so called "global player", they want their employees to be good in english conversations. They created some kind of test which should show if one fulfils the european reference class "B1" refering to the english language.
Here is the test, and red colored my answers. Maybe the native english speaking members can take a look and check how well or how bad I did? (To be honest, I have the feeling there are some errors made by the test creators, I will point them out later)
Please choose the best answer:
1.
a) The shopkeeper gave to them the wrong change
b) The shopkeeper gave the wrong change to them
c) The shopkeeper gave them the wrong change
2.
a) Have you some fresh pretzels?
b) Do you have some fresh pretzels?
c) Do you have any fresh pretzels?
3.
a) I am sorry. I have no time at present.
b) I am sorry, but I don't have any time right. (I'm sure here is the word "now" missing at the end)
c) I am sorry, but I haven't any time right now.
4.
a) John saves money for a new car now
b) John saves all his money for a new car at present
c) John is saving all his money for a new car.
5.
a) I don't have an own car.
b) I don't have my own car.
c) I don't have a car of my own.
6.
a) We are very sad. A good friend of us has just died.
b) We are very sad. A good friend of Tom has just died. (Could be correct too in my eyes..no difference for me)
c) We are very sad. A good friend of Tom's has just died.
7.
a) A pension is a cheap hotel where students, for example, can stay.
b) A pension is money the state gives to people who are too ill to work.
c) A pension is money the state gives to people when they retire.
Please use the correct tense:
a) It (snow) is snowing all day. I wonder when it will stop.
b) We (have) had three major snowstorms so far this winter. I wonder how many more we are in for.
c) It's 10 pm. I (study) am studying for two hours now and probably won't finish till midnight.
d) I (write) wrote to, three times, but haven't recieved a reply yet.
e) I (live) am living here since last march.
f) John (do) does a lot of heavy drinking lately. His wife is going out with other man (Shouldn't it be "men"?)
g) The telephone (ring) was ringing four times in the last half-hour, and each time it has been for my room-mate. It (be) was really very annoying, because I (try) am trying to finish an essay which I have to hand in tomorrow.
h) The little boy is covered with dirt from head to foot because he (play) played in the mud.
i) So you (be, posted) will be (or: have been...not sure which tense is right here..)posted to Jakarta. You should enjoy your time there. I (live) used to live there for two years when I was young, and know the place quite well.
j) I (learn) have learned Latin at school, but (forget) forgot just about everything now.
k) Fred (just, ring) was just ringing. He said he'd be late for work. He (wait) is waiting for a bus for almost an hour now, but the bus (not, run) does not run properly yet because of last night's storm, and he (not, know) doesn't know when the next one will come.
l) I (wait) was waiting for my wife in front of the theatre for alomst an hour last night. When she still (not, come) did not come by the end of the first act, I (leave) left her ticket for her at the box office and (go) went on in alone.
m) Where (you, be) have you been? I (wait) am waiting here since seven!
n) This is the first time I (drink) am drinking tequila. It (taste) tastes disgusting! in fact, it (remind) reminds me of nothing more than nasty medicine!
o) Henry (never, be) has never been to Andorra. He (not, miss) did not miss an awful lot.
p) I (be) was in Sardinia last May. (you, ever, be) Have you ever been there? The nuraghi (plural) (be) were interesting, but a 5000-year-old stone altar on a cliff overlooking a rift valley (impress) impressed me most of all.
q) When I (arrive) arrived on the scene last night, the church (still, burn) was still burning. It (stand) stood next to the royal palace since about 1300, but by the time I (leave) left, there was nothing left of it.
r) I know some people who (learn) learned German for years and still (not, speak) do not speak it properly.
s) I am glad I (not, have) do not have to learn it.
t) (you, have) Do you have an umbrella you can lend me?
u) It (rain) is raining very heavily outside, and I (lose) lost mine. I (will, ask) wanted to ask james, but he
v) (still, have) is still having breakfast and I (not, want) did not want to disturb him.
That's it.
I can't change/correct anything anymore, so there is no way of "cheating" with the answers / correction you will give me here. The worse my results will be, the longer the class will take I have to visit..

I know you have done the test, but I would have put the third one as the correct answer. Basically because I wouldn't say that a good friend of "us" is the right word. It should be "ours". The second one could be correct but I wouldn't say a good friend of "Tom" has just died since the friend might be a friend to all the people (if that makes sense  ) so the third one is what I think would be the best answer.
